Neither does he go directly to the king, nor even to his companions, to tell them that God has made known the dream to him. The first thing he does is to go directly to God. The God that had made known the secret is the One that Daniel at once owns. He is in the place of one that worships God. And allow me to say, that this is the grand object of all the revelations of God. Do not suppose it is a question of making known unto me my sin, and a Saviour meeting all the need of my soul. What God works by His Spirit in His saints is not merely that they should know that they are delivered from hell, or that they should walk as His children. There is a higher thing still. God makes His people worshippers of Himself, and if there is one thing in which God’s children fail more than another, it is in realizing their place as worshippers.
